I don't understand why MinGW won't link BoE.
04:02
<@celticminstrel>
Using GCC 6.3 and a download of MinGW supposedly targeted at 64-bit.

The list of undefined symbols is too long to be certain, but it looks like they're all those that should exist in the various .a files created by earlier steps.

I recall an article on how to exit vim. it was written in joke, but took into account all the modes that vim can be in.
13:04
< sshine>
i.e. :q!<Ret> only works in normal mode (and maybe a few other places). so the final answer is this huge polyglot of a command that resets the mode, whichever it's in, and then exits.
13:05
< sshine>
does anyone recall this article?
13:05
< sshine>
I should've bookmarked it.
13:06
< sshine>
now Google appears flooded by actual "How to exit Vim" tutorials. -_-

< Jessikat>
I keep finding actual uses for do while loops
15:01
< Jessikat>
D:
15:02
<&ToxicFrog>
Why is that a D:? do-while/repeat-until are pretty handy in cases where you know you always want to execute the loop body at least once.
15:08
< Jessikat>
I've barely ever used it before
15:09
< Jessikat>
Largely because the scoping behaviour on variables tends to be antithetical to my normal style with do while
15:18
<&ToxicFrog>
I don't actually remember the scoping for do-while in C/++
15:34
< Jessikat>
The problem is that I often want to use a variable I declared in the do scope block in the condition
15:35
< Jessikat>
And I can only do that by leaking it to the surrounding context
15:35
< Jessikat>
Because scope doesn't work the way I want ^^
15:42
<&ToxicFrog>
Oh dear
15:42
<&ToxicFrog>
In Lua the scope of the do..until ends at the end of the until expression, not at the start of it
15:42
<&ToxicFrog>
So `do local cond = do_stuff(); until cond` is valid.

For people who run Samba, which is probably not many here, but
20:11
<@Tamber>
oof.
20:21
<&McMartin>
This has also reminded me of the various IoT apocalypse scenarios, and led me to a distressing conclusion
20:21
<&McMartin>
I have, many times, complained in here that people in general need to stop using 90s cyberpunk dystopias as instruction manuals.
20:22
<&McMartin>
This is often in an IoT context, but I now realize that I was not looking back far enough
20:22
<&McMartin>
They are using Daffy Duck cartoons as their instruction manuals.
20:22
<&McMartin>
This also implies that cartoons Walla Walla serves the role Redmond does here~
20:22
<&McMartin>
*that in cartoons
20:23
<&McMartin>
But I suppose that it is comforting in a way that we have been telling this story in almost exact detail since electrification~

<&ToxicFrog>
Me, start of article: who the hell leaves samba open to the internet?
20:43
<&ToxicFrog>
A few paragraphs later
20:43 * ToxicFrog | Dan Tentler, founder of security firm Phobos Group, told Ars that more than 477,000 Samba-enabled computers exposed port 445
20:43
<&ToxicFrog>
o.O
20:44
<&McMartin>
Yeah, our assumption of "who the Hell leaves SMB open to the Internet" just got firetested with WCry because that required leaving 445 open on a Win7 machine that had gone at least two months unpatched
20:44
<&McMartin>
And, well, you saw the results
20:49
<&McMartin>
The part I find alarming is that I don't think of it as 'leaving' 445 open
20:49
<&McMartin>
If you're running a system that would have Samba on it, you've got to do the opening yourself
21:12
<&ToxicFrog>
Yeah
21:12
<&ToxicFrog>
Or just like blindly plugging the machine direclty into the internet
21:42
<&McMartin>
That's harder to do these days in this era of ISP-provided DSL/Cable Modem-Router combo
21:44
<&McMartin>
But even with blindly plugging stuff in
21:45
<&McMartin>
smbd isn't running at all by default in my Ubuntu and Fedora systems
22:18
<~Vornicus>
uuuupdaaaaate yooooouuuuuur shiiiiiiiiit
22:19
<@Tamber>
And if you can't update it, lock it the hell away from the internet!
22:23
<&McMartin>
I think it's time to revisit the old design strategy of burning the OS to ROM~
22:24
<&McMartin>
"This is the Klingon solution to code injection vulnerabilities: a machine with no RAM cannot run injected code."
22:26
<~Vornicus>
where's that dude tapping his temple when you need it

Unless you meant Dan McNinja

<&McMartin>
"They can't grab me if I'm on fire" is actually a viable strategy in Magicka!
